Dental Treatment & Examinations Prague

For the healthy person, a full dental exam and professional cleaning should be undertaken routinely every 6 months. As well as, of course, regular brushing and flossing which are essential for good oral hygiene.

Our hygienist will administer a professional dental cleaning, which includes a scaling and polish. Scaling is a common non-surgical treatment for removal of infected deposits (tartar or calculus) from the tooth surface, which, if not removed, lead to gum disease. You will be advised about the condition of your teeth and gums and the hygienist will recommend a sequence of care specific to your needs including advice on proper brushing and flossing. A hygiene treatment of 60 minutes is normally sufficient for a patient with healthy gums and good daily hygiene, however if any level of gum disease exists then more than 60 minutes may be required.

Our dentist will complete a full examination including X-Ray (panoramic digital or a set of 16-20 intraoral). The X-Ray gives a detailed images of patient’s teeth and mouth to reveal dental problems that may not be evident during a visual examination, such as decay in the teeth, decay under existing fillings, or abnormalities such as cysts, abscesses and tumours. The dentist will identify existing problems and potential future problems and recommend appropriate treatment to manage such problems. Your gums will be reviewed for disease and measurements will be taken with a probe. The dentist will make a treatment plan for any required treatments including consultation and discussion of options with you including cost and time considerations.
